– Paul Heyman was tweeting during UFC 181 last night but only re-tweeted other comments from fans about CM Punk signing with UFC. Here’s one of the tweets Heyman re-tweeted:
How Un-Ironic that the best in the world @CMPunk & the BEAST @BrockLesnar -2 crossover STARS!-have been under the tutelage of @HeymanHustle

Here are reactions from former WWE star Tyler Reks (Gabe Tuft) and Jim Ross on Punk signing with UFC:
So Punk whined when @Ryback22 was too stiff in the ring…can't wait to see him in UFC. #FuelingTheFire

It looks like Rey Mysterio is the only WWE Superstar to comment on Punk’s signing so far. He congratulated Punk and wrote the following on Instagram:
“Awesome to see my homie Punk at UFC 181 announcing his new career as a UFC fighter! Congrats & wish him the best… Kick some ASS homie! #ItWasAPleasureBeingInTheRingWithU#LifeChanger#CantWaite2SeeUKickAss”
